How it works
Dolbis-MR Gel is a combination of five medications. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by stopping the body's production of a substance (prostaglandin) that causes pain. Capsaicin works by decreasing a certain natural substance in your body (substance P) that helps pass pain signals to the brain. Menthol and methyl salicylate work by causing the skin to feel cool and then warm. These feelings on the skin distract you from feeling the aches/pains deeper in your muscles and joints. Pregabalin works by decreasing the number of pain signals that are sent out by damaged nerves in the body. This combination specially works to provide relief in neuropathic pain.
